Welcome to session #3 of the online space Migratory Times, “Temporality & Mobility.”
2020 the world has witnessed major events that have changed the way collectives and individuals relate to time, movement, and space. In this session we invite migratory times visitors to engage in conversations that grapple with insurgency and urgency in a time of global pandemic. As many are compelled to shelter-in-place, class, racial, national and gender labor divides have become more apparent. A central part of ongoing coloniality and the modern economies are the sustaining of oppressive regimes. However, as communities have become disconnected physically, there is an urgency to connect in creative ways, where social change and new imaginaries are part of the public landscape of discourse, politics, and socialities. We invite migratory times visitors to grapple these complexities that shape mobile subjectivities and temporalities in an age of covid-19.

Session #3: Mobility & Temporality
In the Time of Pandemic
And the people stayed home.
And they read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were still.
And they listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently.
And the people healed.
And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal.
And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed.
